For the third and last time this season, Chivas USA will face Vancouver Whitecaps FC as part of Major League Soccer’s Week 27. In the three-game series, each team has earned a victory; the Red-and-White earned a 2-1 win in the first match, while the ‘Caps took the second match by a 3-1 result.

Unlike the Whitecaps, the Goats enter the match with an important victory after defeating the New York Red Bulls at home thanks to two goals by Erick “Cubo” Torres and another from rookie Julio Morales.

Torres spoke with cdchivasusa.com about his first encounter against the Canadian squad set for this Sunday.

“It’s going to be a tough game,” “Cubo” said. “We’re coming off an important victory. The Team is motivated, very well standing, so it’s going to be a game where we have to consolidate all the good work that we’ve been having.”

The integration of Torres has been a blessing for Chivas USA; in his six MLS games, “Cubo” has scored a total of four goals, positioning himself as the top goal scorer in the squad. In this Sunday’s game, Torres will look to extend his scoring streak and help the Red-and-White earn three points.

“We have to be conscious that this is revenge. We have to go and win, score one, two, three goals. Make the match our own from the start, if we have the opportunity to win. It’s going to be a complicated match, but we have the winning mentality,” the Mexican concluded.

Meanwhile, Head Coach Jose Luis Real will count with the services of forward Tristan Bowen, who returns to the squad after serving a two-game suspension. In the last match against Vancouver, Bowen was able to score his second goal of the season.

“I think both games against Vancouver were very different in their own ways,” Bowen said. “Going back up there, we know what the environment is going to be like, we know how they play and we just have to work as a team and get a result,” he finalized.
